cedar or pine

[Ybone]

I'm going to finish my Yetti with tongue and groove cedar or pine, the thin stuff. The guy at Menards said they weigh about the same, I always thought cedar was lighter. Menards is also out of cedar but I can get it elsewhere. Which seems to work better in a fishhouse?

Cedar is said to cost twice as much as pine so if $ is not an object go with the cedar as it looks better and holds up to moisture much better than pine.

My Dreamshak has cedar paneling which looks very nice but if you rub something on it it leaks a mark every time. Some day will yank out the cedar and install fiberglass like the newer Dreamshaks have and most all campers. Easy to clean and will not mark up as easy also white will make the house brighter inside. In addition it won't stain from moisture.

Talking to a few friends that have new wheel houses, cedar is the way to go for reasons dougger stated
